Chapter 1729 The Path of a Conjurer: Witches and Warlocks
?Within the Path of a Conjurer, pract.i.tioners could harness a mana core within them, progressing from F to S Rank and even beyond as they advanced on their path. The term "witches" specifically applied to female conjurers, while their male counterparts were known as warlocks.
In the hierarchy, F-Rank witches were called Hexen, with the t.i.tle of Grand Hexen reserved for those at the E-Rank. D-Rank witches were Enchantresses, while C-Rank witches were known as Grand Enchantresses.
B-Ranked and A-Ranked witches earned the t.i.tles of Sorceress and Arcane Sorceress, respectively. The highest rank, Siren, was reserved for an S-Ranked witch. Labh Salem even recognized a rank beyond S-Rank, termed S-Plus Rank, with witches achieving this status being known as Arcane Sirens.
Male conjurers, or Warlocks, had comparable t.i.tles a.s.sociated with their mana core-based status. For instance, an A-Ranked Warlock was referred to as an Arcane Sorcerer, an S-Ranked Warlock was an Evoker, and the highest rank, S-Plus Rank, carried the t.i.tle of Void Evoker.

"Eliza Samael!" Kayara exclaimed in surprise at the mention of the term "Witch of the Enderflames."
"You... Do you know her?" she asked him, her voice tinged with shock. It seemed Kayara had heard many things about Eren"s former arch-nemesis from his time in Anfang.
"Yeah, kinda," Eren nodded as a few images from his past flashed in his mind like a motion picture. He opened his mouth to say something but then decided not to speak about his past with Eliza.
"Let"s just say she owes me one. But this is not the right time for me to make her repay that favor," he said, inhaling Kayara"s scent from her neck. He stretched his tongue abnormally, licking along her neckline, making her feel ticklish and aroused at the same time.
Eren liked Kayara"s perfume notes that had a hint of rosemary oil. So much so that he couldn"t get enough of her even after having so many intimate sessions with her.
"Um... what are you doing? This is not…" Kayara asked with a shaky and sultry voice. The more time she spent with him, the more attached she grew. For the first time in a long while, she felt out of reach of both the powers that had been dictating her life—the Helenbora Coven and Ishgaar"s Temple.
"Kekeke. Let me show you what I am doing," Eren was about to take their intimate session to the next level inside the carriage when the magic colts stopped galloping, bringing the carriage to an abrupt halt.
"Apologies for the interruption, sir. We"ve arrived at our destination," announced the carriage driver with a clear, respectful tone, not directly disturbing Eren. His words prompted Eren to cease his actions with Kayara and s.h.i.+ft his attention to the outside scenery.
Though Kayara seemed dissatisfied with the journey"s end just when things were getting heated up, she followed Eren"s lead and gazed out of the window.
"Quite a bustling city."
The auburn-haired witch remarked softly, observing a lengthy line of carriages awaiting entry at the colossal gates of the City of Demondeath, home to the headquarters of the Kaaysaayan"s Demon Slayer Corps.
